The Effect of Methyl Farnesoate Hormone on Reproduction in Crustaceans
Yüzüncü Yıl Üniversitesi Tarim Bilimleri Dergisi, 2021 Artificial production of crustaceans has gained importance on a global scale with the increase in demand. For this reason, studies are carried out to increase reproductive efficiency with hormone applications in aquaculture studies of economically ...

Identification and Functions of JHE 6 Specifically Expressed in Bombyx mori Silk Gland
Insects, 2023 Juvenile hormone esterase (JHE) is the specific enzyme that degrades juvenile hormone (JH) and regulates the JH titer in insects. JH also regulates the development of the silk gland and the synthesis and secretion of silk proteins in Bombyx mori.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Pathways involved in pony body size development
BMC Genomics, 2021 Background The mechanism of body growth in mammals is poorly understood. Here, we investigated the regulatory networks involved in body growth through transcriptomic analysis of pituitary and epiphyseal tissues of smaller sized Debao ponies and Mongolian

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.dUTPases are involved in balancing the appropriate nucleotide pools. We showed that dUTPase is essential for normal development in zebrafish. The different zebrafish genomes contain several single‐nucleotide variations (SNPs) of the dut gene. One of the dUTPase variants displayed drastically lower protein stability and catalytic efficiency as compared ...

A simplified method for synthesizing juvenile hormone-protein conjugates.
Journal of Lipid Research, 1990 A convenient and simple method is presented for the synthesis of juvenile hormone-thyroglobulin conjugates. Methods previously described for this hapten linkage have used a two-step process in which a reactive intermediate was isolated and then used for ...

PLoS ONE, 2020 Insect molting hormone (ecdysteroids) and juvenile hormone regulate molting and metamorphic events in a variety of insect species. Mealybugs undergo sexually dimorphic metamorphosis: males develop into winged adults through non-feeding, pupa-like stages ...

Endocrine modulation of primary chemosensory neurons regulates Drosophila courtship behavior.
PLoS Genetics, 2022 The decision to engage in courtship depends on external cues from potential mates and internal cues related to maturation, health, and experience. Hormones allow for coordinated conveyance of such information to peripheral tissues.
